Tip

pg. 35

Tip

The tip states, "With the addition of a 320 video-processing program called Adobe After Effects ...", but should state, "With the addition of a $320 video-processing program called Adobe After Effects ...".

That is, the 320 price tag is missing a dollar sign "$".

This error stands out when reading the remainder of the sentence which states, "... and a $550 software add-on called CineLook ...".

Figure 4-2

I find this confusing: In Figure 4-2 (p. 84), the Project Library is pictured above the Event Library, but
in Figure 5-9 (p. 115) and Figure 5-10 (p. 116) the Event Library is in the upper position. In the Visual
Cheat Sheet (p. 434-435), it is the Project Library inthe upper position.

I see no mention anywhere in the text that one can freely arrange these, although I have only read through
to p. 119.

The interface of iMovie '08 takes a while to get used to, so consistency or an explanation would be
helpful.

above Figure 5-4

In the 4th line from the top of page 110, the words "high" and "wide" have been switched (in the discussion
of aspect ratio). Should read: "4 feet wide and 3 feet high."

IT says "This column view shot" when the screen shot is in icon view.
